Mechanical and Electrophysiological Properties of the Sarcolemma of Muscle Fibers in Two Murine Models of Muscle Dystrophy: Col6a1 and Mdx
Figure 1
Survival curve of muscle fibers in culture. Time 0 corresponds to muscle dissection and the fraction of the surviving fibers is expressed in % of the fibers attached on the bottom of the Petri dishes 24 hours after dissection. No difference is detectable in the survival between wild type and Col6a1 fibers, while the survival of mdx fibers is significantly lower.
